"You really can't plan, organise, be efficient, or effective when you are coming from a place of chaos." Recently traveling over the Christmas period I learnt a thing or two and I am the first to admit my own faults.

To spend some quality time with my husba...

November 08, 2022 19:02 - 54 minutes - 124 MB

October 14, 2022 03:58 - 22 minutes - 52 MB

Your travel business, just like any living thing, has its ups and downs throughout the day. It’s impossible in my opinion to be highly productive all the time.

What Traveling gives me from a "Business" perspective

October 06, 2022 02:30 - 29 minutes - 68.2 MB

Being a travel business owner is both exciting and challenging. Some days you feel full of energy, while other days it feels like the effort is draining you. Thus, traveling is a great way to take a break from your business and recharge your mind.    I’ll admit I am a little bit obsessed with business and especially my travel business. Because I LOVE IT!

This made me MAD. And I don't normally get on the defensive like this

June 16, 2022 04:44 - 31 minutes - 14.6 MB

I'm a pretty relaxed kinda person. I don't normally get worked up over things and I NEVER explode or react in a way that would normally be considered an outburst.

I have now been thinking further about it and its really bothering me.  SO - I have decided I need to speak up...

March 03, 2022 03:47 - 1 hour - 32.4 MB

“Mindset” - A word more recently thrown around - quite a lot. I’m not sure how it sits with me yet. Yes - we have control over our thoughts, though if we are to work on our mind and the thoughts we have, I also think that someone who specialises in this area should be consulted as it is a very powerful topic.    I take this topic very seriously as mental health is something that is not a foreign topic in my family. When I want help in a particular area, I see a specialist. My Nanna alway...

Merging of Two Passions to create a new business direction for this Travel Professional

November 01, 2021 19:00 - 34 minutes - 16 MB

Sometimes, when things are hard, a question that arises, is WHY….  Why have I chosen to do something. In this instance, a question I am hearing often right now is: “Why am I still here in travel?” “Why do I still remain on the roller coater of emotions as a pandemic surrounds me?”    If you have asked yourself this or many other “Why” questions, you are not alone. Sometimes I too ask myself this when having a tough day. I answer myself with my love and passion for the industry, travel ...

Do you realise or understand the level of service, the expertise or guidance you provide to your clients?  I know it, you ARE the expert.  So why is it that sometimes we question everything we do.

6 Reasons why Strategy & Planning is Essential for Travel Businesses too.

June 05, 2021 04:41 - 44 minutes - 20.5 MB

Overwhelm is real! When we don’t have direction, a plan or strategies in place, we can be led astray and feel like we have to do ‘all the things.’    Whilst coaching and mentoring Travel Professionals and other business industry professionals, I have seen over and over again, how we can be learning and listening, see or hear of a NEW thing we ‘should’ be doing and then jumping onto it. It can be exciting to work like this, but it isn’t sustainable in my experience.    On the other ha...
